UPDATE: Glen Powell has revealed an embarrassing wardrobe malfunction that occurred while filming his latest action thriller, The Running Man. During a recent roundtable discussion featuring co-stars Josh Brolin and Lee Pace, Powell recounted a shocking moment where his crotch was accidentally exposed during a daring stunt.
In an interview on Entertainment Tonight, Powell described a scene where he was “rappelling down a window.” He candidly shared, “I’m wearing a pouch under, and then I’m wearing a towel around it.” However, the situation took a turn when he realized that crew members were positioned in nearby windows. “You don’t realize there’s people in there, like, lighting and doing electric,” he added, highlighting the unexpected exposure.
Brolin humorously chimed in, suggesting the crew would have had a front-row seat to the mishap, jokingly demonstrating Powell’s precarious posture. The lighthearted exchange brought laughter from both Powell and Pace, underscoring the camaraderie on set despite the embarrassing incident.
In a follow-up interview with Entertainment Weekly, Powell reflected on the conditions during the filming. He expressed regret for agreeing to film the towel scene in February in frigid Bulgaria, stating, “Being in a towel in front of a crew is one thing, but being in a towel in February… it’s a sight.”
Directed by Edgar Wright, The Running Man is set to hit US theaters on November 14, 2025, promising an action-packed experience. As fans eagerly await its release, Powell’s candid revelations add a humorous twist to the film’s promotion.
